The Daily Galaxy: Earth’s Hidden Ocean of Fire: The Untold Story Shaping Our Planet’s Core…

New simulations reveal a hidden “ocean of fire” that once existed above Earth’s core, influencing the planet’s internal landscape. These ancient molten seas, known as the basal magma ocean, were a product of Earth’s chaotic beginnings, and they continue to impact the planet’s underground dynamics today... #earthscience #geography #platetectonics

Hired as technician "she had a hard time convincing [her superior, PhD student] Heezen, who initially dismissed her ideas as "old wives’ tale". In fact, it took #Tharp a whole year to persuade her male colleague that she was right, by showing the correlation between her #bathymetricMaps and that of earthquakes in the Atlantic"

"Being a #woman, she wasn't at that time allowed to embark on oceanographic vessels, or earn a PhD"

... a thought experiment, let's reduce the geographical reach for a moment, b/c "thinking globally" never solves any real-world problems:
The American north east, the area b/W #CAN and #DK (#Greenland.)

I have no idea about water depths and #PlateTectonics in that region, but wouldn't a #WaterPipeline be feasible?

#CAN will need increasing amounts of water for #ForestFire fighting, and more and more...

My Plate Tectonics Android app is now available to anyone who is willing to take part in initial closed testing and has an Android phone. To get it onto Google Play Store apparently I need at least 12 participants. Instructions to take part:

1. Click on this link to join the Google Group which I had to set up for this process:

groups.google.com/g/fineartofs

2. Click:
play.google.com/apps/testing/c

If this system works you should then be able to try out the app and leave feedback.
